IMAGE SCRIPTS
=============

The directory KPML-IMAGE-SCRIPTS contains assorted scripts and lisp
fragments for creating standalone images and saved state versions of
KPML.

In general one needs to edit only the path information in these
scripts for them to work appropriately. Most, if not all, of these are
for Lispworks, as Franz is more restrictive about who you can make
images for and how much they want to charge you for it.

The scripts are provided AS IS, without guarantee (i.e., even less
than usual). You should probably be generally familiar with the
process of making images and standalones under Lispworks before
playing with these. You should also have been able to install KPML
from the sources up to and including the loading of resources and
generation of examples-- otherwise whatever went wrong then will go
wrong again when the script is run, but without much possibility of
you being able to find out what it is that is failing.

The *.bat files start up Lispworks and run the corresponding Lisp file
for possibly compiling, loading and freezing the KPML image
required. They are quite good when everything works since they reduce
the work of making images to a mouseclick. The created images are
saved to D:\Images unless you change this bit of the *lisp* file used
by a script. Naturally they can also be changed so that grammars in
various stages of development are similarly 'frozen' into the image
created.
